For loop index using not-number variables

good morning,
i was wondering if it possible to create a for loop using names instead number.
i have a list of all states in europe (51), for each state i have 12 month data. I know how to create an idx vector (by state) and then grouping information via logical indexing, but repeating this process 51 times seems to be non professional or maybe is wrong.
there is another way to create a for loop to filter/group data? i was thinking to create a vector with all names, but i don't know if can be used as index in the for loop

Please read http://www.mathworks.com/matlabcentral/answers/304528-tutorial-why-variables-should-not-be-named-dynamically-eval for information about why we strongly recommend against creating variable names dynamically.

"what i want is to get 44 varibles/tables (one for state) with 12 rows grouping one per month"
In addition to what Walter Roberson wrote: keeping data togther usually makes data easier to work with. Although you could split the table into lots of little tables (without magically creating new variables, e.g. in a cell array) you would then miss out on all of the tools and methods that identify and process groups of data within tables:
